第十六首 Mayberry（梅镇）

Sometimes it feels like this world is spinning faster
有时我觉得，比起以前
Than it did in the old days
地球转动得更快了
So naturally, we have more natural disasters
因此更快的速度
From the strain of a fast pace
带来了更多的灾难
Sunday was a day of rest
星期天是休息日
Now, it’s one more day for progress
但是现在却成了又一个工作日
And we can’t slow down ‘cause more is best
我们再也停不下来，因为一切都是越多越好
It’s all an endless process
永无尽头

(well)I miss mayberry
我多么想念梅镇
Sitting on the porch drinking ice-cold cherry(Pause)Coke
坐在门廊上，喝着冰可乐
Where everything is black and white (bada bada badadadada)
那里的一切都是黑白分明
Picking on a six string
你弹琴歌唱
Where people pass by and you call them by their first name
人们走过，你亲切地同他们打招呼
Watching the clouds roll by
看着天边云儿飞逝
Bye, bye
这一切不再回来

第十七首 When The Stars Go Blue（当星星变蓝的时候）

Dancin' when the stars go blue
跳舞，当星星变蓝的时候
Dancin' when the evening fell
跳舞，当夜晚来临
Dancin' in your wooden shoes
跳舞，你穿着木鞋子
In a wedding gown
批着婚纱

Where do you go when you're lonely
当你孤独的时候，你会去哪里
Where do you go when you're blue
当你忧郁的时候，你会去哪里
Where do you go when you're lonely
当你孤独的时候，你会去哪里
I'll follow you when the stars go blue
我会跟着你，当星星变蓝的时候

第十八首 I'm Alright（我过得很好）

Well it's been a long time glad to see your face
很高兴见到你，已经过去了这么多年
I knew we'd meet again another time another place
我早就知道，我们终有一天要重逢
Can't believe it's been so many years
但没有想到会这么久
You'd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
你不妨找一把椅子，我们来喝上一杯
Lookin' good in you three piece suit
你的三件套看上去真不错
You know, I always knew you'd take the business route
你知道，我认定你会经商
You were always the one to follow the light and you look like you're doing alright
你永远会选择那种光明大道，现在你的样子说明你干得不错

Been singin' for my rent and singin' for my supper
我哼着歌付房租，我哼着歌吃晚餐
I'm above the below and below the upper
我的处境不好不坏
I'm stuck in the middle where money gets tight
我像大多数人一样，有时会感到手头紧张
But I guess I'm doin' alright
但我觉得，我干得不错
